    Yup, anyone who can't float $117 for a couple of days shouldn't be buying truck mods anyway

    If I get a random item I plan to report it to Amazon CS after sending a "wrong item" return

    Not getting the deal isn't the problem. I think most of us would be fine if it just got canceled and we were told it was a mistake. Sending us gaskets and crap is just a waste of everyone's time. There must be some reason they're doing that to cover their butts or something, because obviously it'd just be easier to cancel.

    Yup, and that's why anyone who got random scam items should report it to Amazon customer service and get the seller punished or banned

    Auto detail, vinyl wrap specialist. Truck has a 300gal fresh water tank for spot free water while detailing and a Honda pressure washer
    Mine says shipped from Portland Oregon. I contacted the seller they told me the same thing to call tomorrow the Amazon department was closed. Now that they are shipping items they will be responsible to provide the correct item right?

    It’s like everyone met up with someone attractive at the bar during happy hour, and bought them a few drinks. They offered to go back to your place for sex, but when you got there, they revealed a body part you weren’t interested in or expecting. Everyone would rather just been turned down at the bar, but now the whole evening is shot because you’ve gotten something you never wanted to begin with.

    Almighty, can you add a poll to this thread since you are the OP? I’m curious as to how many orders exist, and whether people were charged or not.

    Ummm. Stuff
    According to a user on FB who is also an Amazon vendor if a vendor cancels a lot of items it looks bad on them. They can only have a certain percentage of cancellations before Amazon pulls the vendors account. But if the vendor accidently ships the wrong items it is just a mistake and the customer is told they will get a refund and to just reorder the item, which the customer obviously cant do because the vendor took down their listing.

    We know. No one is busting your chops. Threads typically start off serious then once something goes awry, we go off topic and then suddenly there are pictures of dogs humping things.

    In case no one said it, thanks for sharing an awesome deal.

    It was worth a shot!

    I never thought to check. Mine shows as shipped (1lb), but the charge is still pending on my card.

    Been buying and selling online for 20 years. That’s not how it ever works. Actual shipping rates are detrermined prior to anything ever being picked up. If that rate is determined to be inaccurate once it reaches the local terminal, then the cost will be assessed. UPS does not do a “holding weight”. No shipping company does that.

    In this case, the package is actually 1lb, as has already been determined since this is a confirmed scam.

    I didn’t put that because the end result should be one of the available options eventually.

    It sounds like this should be resolved tomorrow by Amazon. It does suck. Definitely a worse case scenario going on with this seller. Sending out random items such as gaskets??? Weird.

    What’s also crazy is that 4wheelonline is out of Florida, they obviously use distribution centers, in my case, Spokane, wa. So they must have literally changed all of our orders to super lightweight items, to get out of canceling the orders. Shady.

    This is exactly right. They had a meeting yesterday reviewing their options and went with the one they thought would best keep them in Amazon's good graces. Doubt they knew the majority of buyers are all in contact

    Hypothetically, what if I wanted to keep the gasket. Could I still get my money back ?
